sam + brian | a relaxed accelerator space wedding with 2 dogs + lush blooms

One of my favorite aspects of being a wedding photographer in Baltimore is hearing the stories of how my couples met. Sam + Brian’s chance meeting in Fells Point feels like a rom-com movie, complete with two of the cutest #urbanrowpups!

These two lovebirds met while walking their dogs, Xander + Dobby, along the promenade. In Sam’s words, “we stopped to let our dogs say hello and immediately started to laugh about how similar they looked (both little, mostly all black mutts). I started to snap a few pictures of the dogs wrestling and Brian asked if I could send him the pictures to smoothly get my phone number…”

Since their dogs are such a big part of their love story, Sam infused the day with a lot of doggie-related details. And if you know me, you know the only thing I love more than weddings is a wedding day spent with cute pups! 

From the details of the gorgeously lush hanging floral ceremony installation to the guests’ Baltimore-themed goodie bags to personalized doggie drink stirrers, Sam put a lot of thought and effort into ensuring every little detail was taken care of.

Brian’s only concern? Ensuring Sam’s happiness. She had worked so hard to make the day perfect, and Brian just wanted his beautiful bride to enjoy it.

Their wedding was a lot like their relationship – relaxed, joyful, celebratory, and full of love.

13 Memorable Moments and Details from Sam + Brian’s Wedding at The Accelerator Space:

1. Sam + Brian both got ready at the Baltimore Marriott Waterfront Hotel. Many of my couples choose this location, so I know it well, especially all of the best spots! This is one benefit of working with a local wedding photographer: if it’s windy, rainy, or too crowded, I always have a Plan B in mind.

2. Sam told me that she wanted a gown that was classic yet modern, with a really good twirl. She definitely achieved that! The fitted top portion of her gown, with lace details and an open back, brought a modern touch to her look and the a-line ball gown provided the perfect amount of classic bridal twirl!

3. Sam + Brian had their first look down along the promenade, with views of the harbor skyline behind them. The water + pups that introduced them, helped frame some of my favorite shots of this quintessential Baltimore couple.

4. After their first look, we headed to one of my favorite wedding party portrait spaces – the open areas near the Homeland lakes. I live closeby, so I walk there often and am always thinking of different ways to document my couples in its gorgeous surroundings. The fact that it’s so close to The Accelerator Space is just a bonus!

5. Sam + Brian’s close friend was their officiant, and he added such a personal touch, filling their ceremony with little stories and anecdotes of their love.

6. As much as their officiant did a wonderful job, I have to say that the flower girl, Parker, and her sweet floral crown really stole the show!

7. Their ceremony was held in the front part of the Accelerator Space, near the large glass black metal doors. Thurman + Fig designed a romantic floral installation of hanging carnations in various shades of whites, reds, blush pinks, and maroons to soften up the industrial feel of the space. This gorgeous floral installation was then repurposed as the backdrop of their sweetheart table.

8. As their guestbook, they borrowed Brian’s mom’s old college typewriter. Guests used it to type out notes of love and advice to the happy couple. It was a fun twist on a classic wedding detail!

9. The guests found their seating arrangements thanks to a huge golden mirror with white letting and black acrylic table numbers that Sam had handmade. Each guest’s seating assignment was stamped on copper bookmarks with black tassels that they had also made themselves. They were so neat — I was kind of jealous that I didn’t get one!

10. Pretty Little Wedding Co. provided a gorgeous honey colored wood bar with a honeycomb pattern that served as a focal point of the reception space. I hadn’t seen anything like it before!

11. Remember the #urbanrowpups that brought these two together? They made a reappearance as the two signature cocktails! I especially loved the drink stirrers with the dogs’ faces.

12. The buffet dinner was catered by one of my favorite Baltimore caterers, Zeffert and Gold. Always a hit, the guests loved the display of Argentinean meats and the catch of the day. When it was time for dessert, their famous mini donuts and delicious espresso martinis covered the tables.

13. Sam + Brian were the picture of wedding perfection in the golden hour shots we got – especially on the ramp against the glass garage doors!

Sam + Brian, your meet-cute is one of my absolute favorites, and it was an honor to photograph your first official day as a married couple. The love between the two of you is so genuine, relaxed, and honest. I wish you, Xander, and Dobby nothing but the best as you begin your happily ever after!

Naomi

the butterfly room at sandtown furniture | industrial baltimore wedding venue

It’s no secret that Baltimore is a city that prides itself on its charm, history and industrial roots. When Sandtown Furniture Co. discovered this incredible brick warehouse in 2021, they had a vision for the space that is unmatched in its attention to design detail while also preserving its rich history dating back to 1885.

As mentioned on The Butterfly Room's website, “only Baltimore would have a wedding venue in a woodshop” …that right there is just one of the many reasons I love Baltimore!! I could list all the reasons why I think The Butterfly Room is an incredible wedding and event venue, but I thought a few (hundred) photos might do a better job than I ever could… ;)

Included below are some FAQs and quick facts about capacity, logistics and what makes The Butterfly Room at Sandtown Furniture Co. such a unique industrial Baltimore wedding venue; hope you find it to be a helpful resource!

Please let me know if you’re planning your wedding here — I’d love to be a part of it!

There are so many ways to celebrate here, the possibilities are truly endless with this 7,000 sf blank canvas to make your own…

Between the exposed, intricately textured brick walls, the larger-than-life floor to ceiling glass wall that divides the event space from the woodworking space for furniture design and production, to the arched windows letting in tons of natural light from above (at certain times of day it feels heavenly as the sun shines in…) and the 6 foot long hand-carved white oak door pull, you will be in awe as soon as you walk in, promise.

The inspiration for this shoot came from taking a raw industrial, historic warehouse and transforming it to have a warm, romantic, soft and modern elegant look...

The color palette incorporated warm orange-y + mustard yellow tones, honey, rust, amber and beige neutral tones with black accents for a modern, minimal wedding aesthetic. The matte black chairs paired perfectly with this custom Sandtown Furniture Co. walnut wood table and meadow-inspired floral ground arch installation for the ceremony.

Wanton Poppies BLEW ME AWAY with their talent and vision for all of the florals and greenery; a hanging install, a ground arch, 2 different tablescapes (fruit in one, greenery in the other!), a stunning bouquet + boutonniere… you name it, they CRUSHED IT!

ABOUT THE BUTTERFLY ROOM AT SANDTOWN FURNITURE CO.:

What makes The Butterfly Room unique as an industrial wedding venue in Baltimore?
 
Have you ever been to a wedding in a woodshop? We make handcrafted wood furniture, and we think our event space has one of the coolest views – our woodshop. Additionally, the 30’ high ceilings, the texture + color of the original brick walls, and the 75 arched windows make this space a sight to behold. And with the glass wall, you see all that from every corner of the space.

This space is so full of character, texture and beautiful craftsmanship in the building details and the wood furniture they design. I don’t know of another wedding venue in Baltimore that has this sense of scale to it and is accessibly laid out all on one level.

INTERESTED IN HAVING YOUR WEDDING AT THE BUTTERFLY ROOM? HERE ARE SOME QUICK FACTS:

What was this space used for in its previous life?
This old building was built in 1885 by The Chesapeake Gas Company of Baltimore to be a gas processing plant. It has served Baltimore in many forms over the years; stoves were made here; canning & bottling was done here; but it had been vacant for many years by the time we found it.

Are there any design inspiration or elements that you're particularly proud of and/or excited to see in use?

The glass wall, for sure.  This is the only thing that separates the gallery/event space from the woodshop. That transparency was key for us. When guests are in the gallery, we want them to feel like they’re in the heart of a woodshop.  And we wanted our craftsman to be able do their work in a beautiful space where they love to be. The full-height, full-width glass wall creates that feel.

The arched windows & intricate brick-work are vestiges from another era, and we went to great lengths to preserve all of that. Generally, we’re really proud of how much of the original building remains exactly as it was when we found it. 

Those are some of the big moments, but honestly, we obsessed over every little detail just as much. The joinery details on the handmade bathroom vanities + mirrors…the solid concrete light fixtures in the bridal suites….the 6 foot long hand carved white oak door pull…we put so much thought & love into EVERY detail.

How many guests can be accommodated for a seated dinner and dancing? 
200 guests

Where do guests park? 
Valet parking is required & there is a valet partner who will handle it all.

How many events are hosted per day? 
Just yours!

Do couples have access to the entire facility on their wedding day? 
The venue has a unique set up; couples and guests have exclusive use of the event spaces and bathrooms on the day of their event. Spaces that are specific to furniture building are not available to guests or vendors.

How early do couples have access to the space on their wedding day?
3 hours prior to the start of the event. 

Are there spaces for the wedding party to get ready on site? 
Yes, we have 2 really beautiful separate spaces that are included with the rental.

Are outside caterers permitted? 
We have a carefully selected group of caterers on our exclusive list. Please contact us for more information. 

Is a representative from the venue going to be on-site for the duration of the event? 
Yes! A representative will be on-site to ensure the venue is operating as expected. We do require that weddings have a professional wedding planner to execute the vision of your day.

What does it cost to host a wedding at The Butterfly Room? 
As we launch the venue, we are offering a limited number of slots at a promotional rate. Please contact us for current rates and availability.

What is included with our rental of the space?
7,000 square feet in the main space, plus 2 suites (getting ready rooms), bathrooms and the catering area.

Is the venue accessible? 
Yes, nearly the entire venue is accessible. One of the getting ready rooms is up a small flight of stairs.

Is the venue climate controlled? 
All of the event space is fully climate controlled, and the main shop space has heat.

joslyn + andrew | a jewel-toned wedding at the assembly room

On the last Saturday in September, Joslyn and Andrew said ‘I Do’ while their closest family and friends cheered them on and partied all night under the most beautiful twinkle lights and with the best dance moves as the Onyx Band (my favorite!) performed at the Assembly Room in downtown Baltimore…

But what really stole the show were 2 moments for me: the first being the moment Andrew saw Joslyn at their first look on the promenade… his speechlessness said it all! And the second being the way they look at each other and are filled with so much love, joy, kindness and humor, it simply radiates from them (just look at this first photo!).

Here is a little bit from what their wedding day looked like!

Congratulations, Mr. + Mrs. Bredholt!! We are so happy for you and know that this is just the start of amazing adventures together… you guys sure know how to throw an incredible party for all your favorite people! I hope Dexter’s not too sad he missed it when you show him the photos… ;)

Naomi

laura + garrison | a vibrant summer wedding at the Accelerator Space

On the last Saturday in August, it was perfectly warm (but not sweltering hot like almost every other day in August has been!), the sun was shining with bright fluffy clouds in the sky and it felt like the world was ready and waiting for this day, when Laura and Garrison got to celebrate their love story in the most beautiful way, surrounded by so many friends and family…

These two are a constant ray of sunshine, a perfect [red-headed :)] team and a couple that bring joy to so many friends and family! I could barely narrow down my favorites to a reasonable amount, so enjoy allllllll of these special moments from their best day ever… sorry, not sorry! I can’t stop thinking about how fun and gorgeous their day was!

7 UNFORGETTABLE MOMENTS + DETAILS FROM LAURA + GARRISON’S SUMMER ACCELERATOR SPACE WEDDING:

1. That dress!!! It twirled like perfection, had pockets and gorgeously delicate lace with a train that was lightweight yet elegant and classic all at the same time.

2. The groomsmen’s pillow fight in one of the suites right before they left the Revival Baltimore… groomsmen goals!!!

3. Laura and the ladies got dressed and ready at the Backus House in Mt. Vernon which was the same place her parents had their ceremony and reception, years ago. I love it when architecture is combined with meaningful places that provide the most perfect backdrop for photos that tell the story of your day.

4. Their first look — you need to see Garrison’s face when he turned around to see Laura (scroll down)!

5. Taking portraits in Mt. Vernon; both L+G’s couple’s portraits as well as the entire wedding party… the architecture, Washington Monument and surrounding cobblestone streets have so much texture and European character.

6. With the Accelerator Space decked out in bright and vibrant summery pink, peach, coral and orange florals and greenery on the metal wall, it felt like a lush garden mixed with an industrial chic wonderland.

7. The sun didn’t cooperate at sunset, but that didn’t stop us from taking advantage of flattering golden hour light… Julie took some really fun photos using motion blur as Laura twirled on the patio!

Congratulations again, cuties!! It was an absolute honor to be a part of your wedding and get to know you both and your families over the last 2 years. I hope you have an incredible time on your honeymoon — you deserve every drink and moment of relaxation in the sun!

Naomi

cynthia + dave | a celebratory wedding reception at Main Street Ballroom

Cynthia and Dave had their second wedding celebration at Main Street Ballroom and it was so fun to be able to see this family again and gather together with the sole purpose of a fun celebration without most of the formalities. Their traditional and chinese tea ceremony occurred last year — see more here!

This time, Dave parted the big barn doors for their vow renewal with a light saber and they both entered the reception with their wedding party dancing to a remix of the song ‘best friend’… it was the most fun!

The dance floor was packed the whole night and the energy was ridiculously high. Ending the night popping champagne under bistro lights was incredible - I’m so glad you finally got to celebrate this way, you both deserve it!!

5 OF MY FAVORITE THINGS ABOUT THIS MAIN STREET BALLROOM WEDDING RECEPTION:

1. The greenery by Wander and Whimsy above the white barn doors added a lush, softness to their vow renewal backdrop.

2. Cynthia changed into a sparkly sequin reception dress and flats to dance the night away. Dave’s boutonniere was made of some dried elements from Cynthia’s dried bouquet from last year’s ceremony and was the perfect touch on his navy blue suit.

3. The newlyweds entered with Dave leading the way holding a light saber and the Imperial March playing… they then went into their first dance with a few upbeat songs following it, to get their guests partying right away!

4. Their textured cake had flecks of gold leaf and a perfect topper… ‘f*cking finally’. AMEN!

5. Popping champagne and taking night portraits outside on the patio was the perfect celebratory end to almost 2 straight years of planning their big day(s)!

Congratulations, cuties! Your emotional speeches and epic entrances were unforgettable. You guys definitely know how to throw one heck of a party… it finally happened!!

7 Accelerator Space Weddings: Industrial Chic Inspiration, Decor + Ideas

If you’re considering having your wedding at an industrial wedding venue in Baltimore, the Accelerator Space checks all of the boxes in my mind…! Here’s what I love most about it:

1. tons of natural light and character made up of old wood floors, metal walls, large windows and huge skylights

2. one large open space for you to design to best fit your vision with a bonus room (the den) for ceremony, cocktail hour and/or portraits

3. an intimate patio for ceremony, cocktail hour and stunning sunset portraits

4. the brewery below the venue (Full Tilt Brewing) for portraits against their mural wall and/or the after party!

5. proximity to open green space and urban industrial space for first looks offsite… if you’re curious, ask and I’ll share my fave spots with you! ;)

Since I’ve photographed 7 weddings at the Accelerator Space so far (with more coming!), I wanted to compile a helpful resource for you full of unique ideas and wedding decor inspiration; it showcases how every couple’s wedding day at this specific venue has been different, yet incredibly beautiful! There are countless ways to layout this warehouse space, locate your band, setup your tables, divide the space for a ceremony and reception all in one area, organize the flow, hang bistro or twinkle lights, drapery, etc.

I honestly believe it is one of the most versatile and unique wedding venues in Baltimore! Without further ado, enjoy these gorgeous weddings full of vibrant color, genuine emotion, candid moments and passionately in love urban couples!

a modern industrial + boho chic wedding in dc | mess hall dc wedding

It’s rare that I have the opportunity to be a second photographer, but when the stars align and there is a venue, couple and date that aligns perfectly with my aesthetic, personality and schedule, it’s pure MAGIC.

Industrial warehouse vibes with a fun and modern, laid-back couple who wanted tons of candid and photojournalistic photos at their October wedding? YES PLEASE!

Ben had all of his DJ equipment setup so naturally (or maybe because that was the most naturally light space… ha), I had to setup his details there! I loved hanging out as they got ready since I never usually get to hang with the guys, so with that came a whole new aesthetic to document. Perfect example, I overheard this from one of the groomsmen: “we have all this time to just hang out here and drink whiskey?”

I started the day with Ben and his groomsmen at his apartment and we met up with the rest of the crew at the Mess Hall right before the ceremony. With that area of DC being full of industrial grit, Hannah’s botanical boho-inspired wedding dress was such a gorgeous balance, complimented by an asymmetric, organic and wild, moody bouquet. The bridesmaids all wore different dresses and even a pantsuit (YESSS!) in neutral and metallic shades while the men looked sharp in navy suits.

my favorite 6 unique and memorable elements from Hannah + Ben’s DC Mess Hall wedding in October:

• the overall raw industrial and urban graphic aesthetic softened with a natural chuppah held in place by loved ones and made up of birch poles with hanging greenery

• the variety of recycled gin and whisky bottles filled with flowers and used as table centerpieces and reception decor

• the mismatched neutral + metallic bridesmaids dresses/outfits

• Hannah wore her hair down with loose waves, embracing a natural and boho chic bridal look

• tons of blank walls, colorful murals and green space along the railroad tracks to use as portrait backdrops (what more could a photographer want?!)

• the brunch buffet for dinner (!) and how their guests mingled and danced all night long with intimate rooms and spaces that were all next to each other

Cheers to you, newlyweds! It was such an honor to be able to assist in documenting your Mess Hall wedding in DC… I hope your free spirited love continues to bring you to amazing places that make memories for many years to come!!

Naomi

haven street ballroom | industrial warehouse baltimore wedding venue

Looking for a space to celebrate? Let me introduce you to Haven Street Ballroom, Baltimore’s newest industrial, airy (the inside is all white!) and quirky event venue designed with your wedding day in mind.

From the founder of Main Street Ballroom in Historic Ellicott City, Haven Street Ballroom is nestled between a brewery and an axe-throwing bar in the heart of an industrial neighborhood easily accessible from I-95 and right down the street from my favorite East Baltimore neighborhoods, Patterson Park and Canton.

If you know me at all, you know I love my venues to have history, character, pops of color yet still neutral overall and all the quirks! Their tagline of “a blank slate with character" couldn’t be more true…

VIDEO BY TEN TWENTY SEVEN FILMS

Currently under construction but accepting bookings for events on or after May 1, 2019, I had the opportunity to capture these branding images with real Baltimore brides and it couldn’t have been more fun! Think champagne opened with axes (I stayed back!) after learning the ropes next door at Urban Axes and ending our time with a beer at their other next door neighbor, Monument City Brewing.

That’s pretty much how I envision a wedding day unfolding here: the guys hanging at Urban Axes to expend nervous energy and the after party spilling over to Monument to enjoy their unique and hand-crafted brews. Anthony and I will meet ya there for a 51 Rye (his favorite), while I’ll sip a sour... ;)
